Any idea what the Google Drive API error shareOutNotPermittedForContent means?

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

Attempting to server-side move some My Drive files to a shared drive fail with shareOutNotPermittedForContent. Note that the majority of files move without issue, so it seems this is a file-specific setting of some sort. I've tried searching and have found literally nothing on this specific error message.

Run the command 'rclone version' and share the full output of the command.

rclone v1.60.1
- os/version: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro 21H2 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 10.0.22000.1335 (x86_64)
- os/type: windows
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.19.3
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: cmount

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Google Drive

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

Looks like it is due to the file being flagged for restricted content.

That's also what I had found. Love Google :slight_smile:

You could try this flag. I don't know if it will help or not.

  --drive-acknowledge-abuse                    Set to allow files which return cannotDownloadAbusiveFile to be downloaded
